The global 5G network security market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 41.82% to reach US$16.159 billion by 2028, from US$1.986 billion in 2022.
The demand for network security has surged owing to the expansion of 5G technology. An emerging need for a safe and secure network can be witnessed owing to increased internet usage across the globe. For instance, according to the world bank, the number of individuals using the Internet has drastically increased from just 46% in 2017 to 60% in 2020.
Hence, the growing internet penetration requires the 5G technology to be designed in a way that allows its security controls to address the present world’s cyber threats.
GROWTH DRIVERS
- Growing Investments in Network Security
In a wide-ranging technological environment that includes virtualization, disaggregation, cloud, AI, IoT, and Industry 4.0, telecom networks are evolving quickly. Therefore, an equally broad yet more difficult cybersecurity environment exists to address it. Furthermore, with the growing emergence of 5G technology, fraudsters may use several kinds of organizational vulnerabilities and security risks to access or corrupt company data. Hence, due to the high risk of cyberattacks or cybercrimes, various legitimate measures can be observed by the market players as well as governments. For instance, in December 2022, in India, it was announced by the managing director of a cybersecurity risk management firm that Indian telecom operators such as Bharti Airtel, Reliance JIO, and Vodafone are expected to increase 25-30% of their IT budget to network security to secure the network on the backend as well as monitor the consumer’s data flow.
- Increased Application Across Industry Verticals/Sectors
The emergence of the 5G network have a huge impact on various sectors. Industries such as banking, healthcare providers, energy, media, and telecommunications along with government institutions have sensitive and critical data, hence are prone to cyberattacks. For instance, the number of cyberattacks against India's government sector increased by 95% in the second half of 2022 in comparison to the same period in 2021, according to data from CloudSEK, a contextual AI firm that forecasts cyber threats. Consequently, as the 5G technology emerges, it becomes necessary for industries as well as government organizations to protect their data by undertaking security measures.
EMERGING OPPORTUNITIES IN THE GLOBAL 5G NETWORK SECURITY MARKET
